So, im a fan of Xchange the game, and have played others that use irl porn, or hentai art..... im an artist but also trying to make the perfect pron game for myself, and anyone else that likes the kinks i do, so my time is limited..... is that considered okay to use ppls art? i assume hentai artists that make the art of copyright characters cant complain? or that rl porn just isnt copyrighted like other things? OR is this just the game maker being risky and they could get asked to remove those images/vids? I plan on just doing still images for my game atm but i WANT animated gifs eventually. just dont know when i will get the time to do that.
Thanks for any answers ^-^

You are asking on a site that flies the Jolly Roger about the ethical implications of using other people's work without permission, but technically, no. If it's purely personal, who gives a fuck? If you're releasing it to the wild, then there's always the risk of a C&D using copyrighted works by larger companies. Most artists on the web can't do that, though, so you can steal with impunity especially when they're using already copyrighted works. Now, it would be within the Code to ask permission, or at the very least, offer some compensation (assuming you're making money from this) after the fact. You can always use placeholders, as well. You also probably wouldn't run into too many issues using hentai/anime characters anyway since the parody laws in Japan are much more lenient than in the US/Europe.

Ya i know that this site has um...interesting strokes for interesting folks and im one of those, but ofc we always strive to be as up n up as we can... yeah i was tempted to make some gifs from certian sfm's that fit the flavor of my game, but im just going to make place holder stills and down the road i can look at time off to do more animations.

Thanks for indulging me ^-^

What engine are you planning to use? RPGM? Ren'py? What characters? VAM/HS2/KK can all be used to make videos (which can be easily converted to gifs if needed) and a lot of existing characters are available for them.

I'm using Rpg Maker MV at the moment, im working on a pregnancy system, noncon system, day night ect i think i can use maps and common events to easily display my 2d art to start, and i dont mind adding stages and using the basic effects to make it "animated" then down the road i may invest in live 2d as ive wanted to learn to rig with that anyway. It was a toss up for me between rpgm or twine, i do think everything i want to do i can track and do in rpg m basic system, then use one or two plugins for quality stuff. The thing is, i dont want to make a rpgm game as normal its more renpy like then anything, no walking around, sprites, all 90s style anime art ( my specialty ) with a large map and world to explore, using choices and prompts to do mini games ect.

Since I've spent a bunch of time recently figuring shit out for MZ, I've seen a few things that might help.

I think some of Galv's plugins could help with some of what you're looking at like the map system.

using only events.

also has a calender plugin, plus unlimited reserve common events (I believe MV is limited to like 500 or something)

Collection - Other - [RPG Maker MV] Yanfly Collection | F95zone All of Yanfly's MV plugins. Vizustella/Yanfly's MZ are also here and updated regularly.

Can probably do your noncon with a friendship system




(fire emblem style)

Good luck and have fun. Biggest thing is to stay motivated, that's what I struggle with.
